Chapter 106: The School of Pit Vipers
Boom β
The long-suppressed thunder finally exploded, as if there was an eternal god of thunder and lightning, driving a chariot to rumble through the sky.
The dazzling arc fills the heavens and the earth.
Radiant and bright as day.
Scati observed this scene carefully, and a trace of shock could not help but rise on his face as indifferent as winter.
This witcher's talent is truly terrifying, as if the more he fights, the stronger he becomes, and every opponent he defeats will become his food for becoming stronger.
For example, this spell that calls for thunder and lightning clearly has a hint of the divinity of the storm god that she once faced.
Even divinity can be devoured, so is it?
She couldn't help but feel a trace of worry in her heart.
The electric light gradually dissipated, and black smoke curled out of the ravine.
Then, the dense "tentacles" poked out of the ravine again, although this time the tentacles were mostly mutilated, even the head at the front was gone.
The first two times Leon cast [Storm Lord's Thunder], she was in a deep sleep, so she didn't notice this.
This time, it was because these spirits of incredible strength were the delicious meals she had ordered, that she would always pay attention to the movements in the field, otherwise she would not have lent her power to Leon just right.
Although the Storm Lord's Thunder takes a long time to guide, the chance of hitting is not high, and it consumes too much manaβall these shortcomings are exchanged for extreme lethality.
It can be said that [Storm Lord's Thunder] is the strongest output talent that Leon has obtained so far, and there is no one.
"None of them are dead?"
Leon's expression became more and more solemn.
Boom β
There was a bang, and the violent whistling of air was extremely harsh.
And to deal with spirits, "Lei Fa" should have a special bonus.
But even so, this giant stitched evil spirit is still not dead!
This sword is simply earth-shattering, although the skill may not be very exquisite, but the power of the Great Heavenly Ghost contained in it makes Li Ang can't help but be amazed.
He could clearly feel the breath of the stitched evil spirit rapidly dissipating and dying.
It turned out that Luo Jia beside him had quietly appeared in the sky above the ravine, and behind him, the pair of black wings turned into black light, all of which were poured into the blade of the sword in his hand.
Immediately, it fell into the ravine.
If you don't hurry up and eat it, the evil spirit of stitching will dissipate.
At the edge of the ravine, a hand stretched out, and Leon grabbed it and dragged Lorga up from underneath.
Scati quietly appeared, and the goddess, dressed in a group of white palace clothes, asked in a rare tone of inquiry, "Can I go to eat?"
"Of course!"
Luo Jia laughed: "I'm not just going to give you a hand and be an assistant to do auxiliary work. β
"Of course, you're crucial. β
His eyes were a little dim, and although his tone was weak, there was a hint of pride that could not be concealed, and he asked, "How is this sword?"
Leon patted Loga on the shoulder and praised, "Well done!"
"Huh. β
Luo Jia smiled and straightened up again: "But I just discovered that under that ravine, there is a cave hidden, where the secret of this stitched evil spirit may be hidden. β
Leon did not shy away from his praise.
If Luo Jia hadn't seen the opportunity and mended the knife in time just now, he who had exhausted his magic power would not have been able to stitch up the evil spirit at all.
Fortunately, there were no accidents.
Scati returns, their contract is complete, and then, whenever she has time, she takes herself to find the fragment of her godhead.
"Okay, let's drink two potions, rest for a while, and then go down and take a look. β
Li Ang did not act rashly, he would never take it lightly because he solved the stitching evil spirit.
They went in the opposite direction, and in a short time they reached the deepest part of the cave.
It is a large and spacious place, which looks like an alchemical laboratory, with a large urn in the center and wooden shelves filled with bottles and jars.
After the two of them rested, they went down to the cave, and sure enough, they found a cave, which should be the fracture of the tunnel through the mountain from the middle.
They first walked to the side, but as they walked, they suddenly realized that they had come out of the mountain, and there was a large forest outside, and then they realized that they had gone the other way.
"The Viper School?"
Leon guessed.
It looks like an alchemist's secret base, but on the walls, two cross-shaped straight swords hang side by side.
On top of the double swords, a lifelike pit viper head is also depicted with red paint, which looks quite ferocious and devouring.
But because of this, neither the wizards, nor the secular nobles, nor the rest of the demon hunters did not like to see them.
He walked over to a rectangular desk with a thick book on the cover of which was written in Latin letters in ink and quillβa log of experiments.
The School of Pit Vipers is also a member of the School of Beasts, but its style of painting is the same as that of the Griffin School, which is incompatible with the rest of the schools.
The Pit Viper School is good at alchemy and potions, and is especially good at using alchemy poisons, even monsters with high poison resistance can be easily poisoned by them.
[Dear latecomer, I'm Rachel Marquis, a witcher of the Viper School, and you've never heard of that name, after all, I'm just a mediocre person with no name.] γ
[The only thing to be proud of is the experiment record next to it, and the night watchdog outside is my masterpiece.] γ
On the side, an envelope was deliberately placed with the sentence "Please read this letter carefully" on the side.
Leon opened the envelope, placed the letter in a position where both of them could see it, and read it quickly.
[First of all, I am not a wicked person, nor am I doing this inhumane research for my own selfish desires, I am here to save the world. γ
You must not believe that this world has been engulfed by the abyss, the demon invasion advocated by the church, the end of the world has already come, but only the gods have fallen, and the demons do not intend to exterminate us, but have adopted other gentler ways. γ
[If you can get here, you must have learned how powerful it is. γ
[If you are a person with a strong sense of justice, please don't get angry just yet, and continue to read this letter. γ
[Being able to get here means that you are not an ordinary person, if you are willing to make a lot of efforts to investigate, you will definitely find that what I said is true. γ
(Some of the already known things are omitted below)
[Strictly speaking, we are now abyssal creatures, half demons, even if we don't become demon hunters, we are at risk of mutating into demons. This is also the reason why it takes a certain amount of strength to cross the Abyss Gate, and there are still many low-level monsters born in all corners of the world. γ
They are not intruders, but natives of this realm just like us. γ
[This is a dead end, the path of the witcher is destined to have no bright future at all, and at this point, the witcher is far inferior to the wizards. γ
So, I decided to forge a new path for witchers. γ
[This discovery made me and my teacher realize that monsters can never be killed, and using the power of monsters to deal with demons is just a beautiful idea, but it is tantamount to drinking to quench thirst, and most of those demon hunters who are strong enough but suddenly disappear have been lured and degraded by the Nasrezm and introduced to those abyss lords and even the lords to serve as demon generals and lieutenants with extraordinary status. γ
[The stronger and more prosperous the witcher, the more commanders we provide for the abyss.] γ
We don't need to rely on the power of demons at all, and replacing the power of demons with evil spirits is a truly bright path. γ
So, I started researching. γ
[It just so happened that I received a commission to deal with low-level evil spirits, and I was just an ordinary person when I was alive, but after I died, I burst out with a power that even a veteran witcher like me found quite tricky.] γ
After dealing with that evil spirit, I began to realize the potential of the human soul itself, and I came up with a bold idea. γ
[The success of the first attempt was very inspiring. It's cruel to do, but for the sake of the future of humanity, I think they would be willing to sacrifice even if they knew, right?]
What do you think?]
[I secretly poisoned the children of a newlywed couple in this nameless town, and the next day, I poisoned my wife's husband, and on the third day, the heartbroken woman finally hanged herself under the influence of my trace amount of hallucinogens. γ
[Then, in the middle of the night, she successfully transformed into a resentful spirit!]
[Three days later, I successfully replaced the demonic talent cornerstone in my body with the power of evil spirits, and I entered the experiment records in the process, which you can check later.] γ
[As a result, I have obtained extraordinary telekinetic magic, and I have been freed from the erosion of demonic power, and according to estimates, this power will not be weaker than the first order of the middle sequence. This is a real thing to be thankful forβbecause the path of the witcher is no longer a deformity, a hopeless one. γ
I think you're fucking!
Seeing this, Li Ang couldn't help but curse a dirty word.
[Later, when you read this letter, it means that my prediction has come true, that I died in the mouth of an evil spiritβdoes it sound like a kind of drama in the mouth of a bard?]
[Ha, it cannot be denied that I am indeed a great sin, and the guilt torments me day and night, and liberation is not a bad thing for me. γ
[I began to try to cultivate more powerful evil spirits, the strength of the middle sequence is far from enough to resist the abyss army, I need a stronger "evil spirit basestone". γ
[But unfortunately, I failed, this evil spirit that I accidentally cultivated was beyond my control, it grew every day, and derived some kind of rules similar to divinity.] I no longer have the power to restrain it, and it will come back - I expected that. γ
[You can do it. γ
[Actually, it doesn't matter if I hand it over to him or not, whether the world is destroyed or not, the moment I die, it doesn't matter to me anymore. γ
[But please be sure to bring this research record to my teacher, who will generously pay you a handsome honorarium.] The School of Pit Vipers has no station, and you can go to the northern city of Kellmohan in the winter to find the rest of the Beast Witchers, and they will pass on the record to him. γ
At this point, the witcher of the pit viper school was clearly in a hurry, and signed his name at the checkout.
Leon was silent for a long time, not knowing what to say.
It was Lorga who spoke first and asked, "What should we do?"
